So I've had a few days to play with the 0806, and so far, I've found no major glitches.
Two things that could use improvement/explanation:
1) The GPS path shown in the Registrator Viewer regularly goes from red to grey (with the corresponding arrow turning into a circle as it plays back). During the grey intervals, the GPS data shows a (?) ahead of the coordinate info. In only lasts a second or two, and happens about every 20-30 seconds. The GPS speed and coordinates that are stamped on the video continue to update, or at least do not glitch out with 000's or other obvious errors.
2) On one camera (the front view), the first file written has a file time/date of something in 2006. The actual time stamp on the video is correct. By the time the second clip starts to record (3 min later), the GPS has locked, and the file date/time is accurate. The consequence of this is that when Registrator Viewer 'groups' the clips, it ignores the first one. It's there, and I can manually add it, but it's annoying.
Problem 1 seems to be happening on all four cameras. My vehicles have metallic tint (including the windshield), so I'm thinking that may be interfering with the signal. I just ordered this GPS repeater antenna system to see if that doesn't improve the reception.
Problem 2 appears to be happening on just the front camera.
